Not so deep that you draw blood but deep enough to see the marks. This pushes the toxin from the mosquito deeper into the lower layers of skin where it will be absorbed quicker than on the top layer. <Connynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2739380501383117294.post-505648207376748302010-08-18T18:58:00.455-04:002010-08-18T18:58:00.455-04:00Oh God Abby I feel awful that you got attacked so ...Oh God Abby I feel awful that you got attacked so badly! The bugs here are brutal. I know its next to impossible, but the best remedy I have found is not to itch them at all for the first 24 hours. If you can resist the first day, they usually go away peacefully. But once you itch them, then they drive you crazy for days. Hope you're feeling some relief by now.Alice in WoNERDlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14082810541113656818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2739380501383117294.post-28730104752607265842010-08-17T18:47:07.415-04:002010-08-17T18:47:07.415-04:00Ab this IS awful feel better soon!

I know a Florida sea lice remedy is to put clear nail polish on it to contain and stop the itching-worth a shot?ZAMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01097892008279802689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2739380501383117294.post-68076085657284204082010-08-17T17:09:45.572-04:002010-08-17T17:09:45.572-04:00Abby...that sounds awful!

I read somewhere that if you hold hot compresses to the bites for ten minutes, it will itch like hell for a few minutes, but then will feel better. Something about releasing all of the histimines...<br /><br />Good luck and feel better!alimac33https://www.blogger.com/profile/05877521156938750285noreply@blogger.com
